Summer time is really not my favorite season because of the rising temperature and extreme hot condition, but there are some memorable summer vacation I had,like the one when I was still in high school where we would go to the farm and explore the rice field in the afternoon, such a wonderful relief from sordid days in the town or city. How about you do you have any particular memorable summer?

Well - it is really refreshing to share this trip which we had two years back to the interior of the Himalayas. It was during the summer vacations when we all the family started the trip and the place selected was to Gangorti - and from this place it is 18 km away which is the birth place of River Ganga. We had the dream of viewing this unique place,finally it was HIS good wishes we reached the place and had a good view of this spot spending around 2 hours,meditated here for some time and also proud to share that we also had a dip in this chilling water . This is an unforgettable trip in our life.

This is easy. When I was seventeen years old, the summer before I started my senior year of high school, I had the opportunity to go to Paris, France and a tour through Italy. It was a two week trip and it was one of the best experiences of my life. My brother traveled with me as long as several other youth from different Catholic churches in our city. It was the fact that I was able to see so much history in the time that I was there that made it such a memorable experience for me.

I love the summer. Especially when I don't have to go to work. My most memorable summer vacation was just being at home and doing whatever I wanted. Going for walks, going swimming, laying on a beach. Barbecue parties. Just hanging out with others. Relaxing.

Hello marga, Thanks for your response. I love swimming during summer too, I guess it's a good relief from extreme hot weather.

It would have to be the one last year with my significant other. We stayed in a beautiful white sand beach resort. Definitely unforgettable. I just hope we can take another vacation very soon.

for me, the most memorable summer vacation is that my family will go to my father's hometown at the province, will go to our farm, harvest some fruits and vegetables, eat different kinds of fruits everyday and ride on a carabao or ride a cart pulled by cow... everything we do are just totally fun...
